Picked this book up in Oxfam yesterday.

Very groovy!  From the 50s

Seems to have a huge list of developer formulae!

What surprises me is just how many formulas I've never seen before!

Fantastic find.

Yeah, this is awesome. Great find, Chops. Bet it was GBP2 or cheaper. That should keep you happy for the rest of the year.

Chops, go to http://openlibrary.org/books/OL14254939M/Developing_the_negative-technique and see if you can add your cover image to their library.
